At the age of 19 she went to London in order to act.n In 1772 she agreed to marry the actor Joseph Inchbald (1735-1779).

After Joseph Inchbald’s death in 1779, she continued to act for several years, in Dublin, London, and elsewhere.n Between 1784 and 1805 she had nineteen of her comedies, sentimental dramas, and farces (many of which were translations from the French) performed at London theatres.n Eighteen of her plays were published, though she wrote several more; the exact number is in dispute though most recent commentators claim between 21 and 23. Her two novels have been frequently reprinted. Elizabeth Inchbald,n nee Simpson (1753-1821) was an English novelist, actress, and dramatist.
